Episode iii Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith brought a new revelation in the chronological history of the space saga, Star Wars. In the Clone Wars, George Lucas showed us the way it all started with the childhood of Anakin Skywalker, that was to become Darth Vader in its adult years, and how the story had to move on. The release of Episode iii Star Wars in May 2005 enjoyed great reviews from critics, breaking the box office during the first week after the launch. In the history of the cinema the making of this film added a new page exquisitely written.
The reason for which there was room for chronological additions is that George Lucas only outlined the basic plot in the 70s at the time of the project conception. Back then, details came second on the priority list, and the important facts were the ones to count in the development of the series. Episode iii Star Wars underwent several scene modifications before it was released, as the director worked on editing, scripts and scene making equally. Nevertheless, the result was worth waiting for, since Episode iii Star Wars speaks about more than just the beginnings of the galactic empire, the public is confronted with the corruption and pervasion of evil.
Once the screenplay for Episode iii Star Wars got ready, Lucas focused on the design. The art department would work on hundreds of patterns that were supposed to appear on screen. While shooting various scenes, they even turned to pre-visualization techniques to get an idea of how the scenes and the characters would look like. Steven Spielberg was also involved in the making of the Revenge of the Sith, witnessing all the work that Lucas and his team devoted themselves to for the analysis of every sequence. Stunts were extensively used, particularly in what the fight scenes are concerned; thus, the famous duel moment between Anakin and Obi-Wan was filmed at the speed at which it actually took place, with very little tricks meant increase velocity.
Episode iii Star Wars was filmed almost exclusively in the Fox Studios in Sidney, Australia, yet, different backgrounds were later shot for the purpose of creating practical environments. Thus, a team filmed the eruption of Mount Etna in Italy, and the material was used in the end of the film to create the background of the Mustafar planet. Episode iii Star Wars also had a theatrical counterpart that was released almost in the same time with the movie. The premiere of the film took place at the Cannes Film Festival on May 15, 2005, without entering the competition, while the play came out four days later.
